Undergraduate Research: WebGuru is a website devoted to all aspects of undergraduate research. It includes ethics, writing, records keeping, any many other aspects of working on a research project. There’s even information about how to choose a graduate school.
Scientific Writing: Publishing Your Research 101 provides a series of videos by the American Chemical Society on writing a scientific paper. Some of the titles such as “Improving your writing skills” and “Writing so people will notice” may be generally helpful, while others are more specialized (e.g. writing a cover letter (to submit a manuscript to a journal). All videos are less than 7 minutes long.
Ethics CORE (Ethics Collaborative Resource Environment) is an NSF supported resource to learn about and teach scientific ethics.
